The problem of the circuit of its operation based on the electric current I p of senses flow overpower transistor is that the parasitic signal Sp in fact not representing electric current to be controlled may cause the comparison and/or protective circuit that activate the described electric current of sensing by mistake.
The condition of this type may (namely on the forward position of current signal Ip) occur immediately continuing Short Interval after connection power transistor.For several reasons, the Reverse recovery etc. of the rectifier diodes in such as parasitic capacitance discharge, power circuit, has the spike Sp superposed on the forward position of current signal Ip usually.The duration of such spike is usually short, but the amplitude of spike may apparently higher than the operation amplitude of current signal Ip.These spikes Sp may the terminating of control time of trigger power transistor too early, and this may make transducer operate brokenly.
Usually the problem of the spike Sp on the forward position of current signal is solved in two different ways.
First method is the filtering mode usually by using low pass RC circuit to realize between inputting at the sensing of current-sense resistor Rs and control appliance.Described RC filter time constant should be long enough to reduce below peak amplitude to the peak value of useful signal.On the other hand, time constant can not be oversize, otherwise the delay introduced on useful signal (equaling time constant) has the risk making current protective device inefficient when actual overcurrent.Usually, this time constant counts in hundred nanoseconds, but find that appropriate the trading off between two factors mentioned above is not always easy.In addition, two additional external component can also be used.
Second method introduces Spike suppression circuitry in the current sense input of control appliance.The such peak restrained circuit of one class is the peak restrained circuit being commonly referred to lead-edge-blanking circuit.Fig. 3 shows the same circuits figure in Fig. 1, has wherein added spike blanking block 50 with the spike Sp (see Fig. 4) in the forward position of the blanking signal Vcs proportional with flowing through the electric current I p of power transistor M1.Block 50 blanking signal Vcs continues blanking period Tleb, therefore obtains signal Vcs_b.In addition or replace, the AND door 7 that the signal Lb of the output and block 50 that receive PWM comparator 4 exports as input prevents the reset signal R of PWM latch to have high level in blanking period Tleb.
Usually, these circuit to be activated immediately before power transistor and operates so that the signal of blanking in the sensing input and/or output of the circuit of the signal of process sensing during Short Interval up after switching connecting.This Short Interval is often called " blanking period ".Such as, sensing input can temporarily be kept to be shorted to ground connection or to compare from downstream and/or protective circuit isolation, thus they do not receive spike; Or, to replace or in addition, can temporarily masking ratio compared with and/or the output of protective device, thus do not receive error signal at the circuit in the latter downstream.Fig. 4 shows the example of the signal relevant with the circuit in Fig. 3.
Monostable, the non-multivibrator that can again trigger is depended in beginning and the end of blanking time section usually, and this multivibrator provides the pulse with preset durations.Monostable trigger-action circuit is activated by the identical signal Q1 of the connection determining power transistor M1; Monostable trigger-action circuit determination blanking period.
This mode is not no problem.Fixing blanking period may seriously limit the frequency range that wherein can use control appliance, and this may make troubles in common apparatus.In fact, consider the tolerance of the duration of blanking period, minimum duration must be long enough to blanking spike.On the other hand, the maximum duration should so not grow to such an extent as to due to minimal turn-on time of power transistor oversize and obviously reduce the validity of protective circuit under overcurrent situations.
Relate on the other hand the switch on delay of power transistor, this switch on delay depends on power transistor itself, the characteristic of gate drivers 6 and the interface circuit also depended between the driver output and the input terminal (grid of MOSFET or IGBT) of transistor of control appliance.This delay may be difficult to or can not predict and also can be adjusted to reduce the electromagnetic noise generated when connecting.Long switch on delay can reduce effective duration of blanking period substantially.
Alternate manner is proposed to overcome problem mentioned above.U.S. Patent No. 5,418,410 describe a kind of circuit, and in the circuit, the end of blanking time section depends on that driving voltage exceedes the value determined, anticipated capability transistor are connected entirely and the disappearance of forward position spike.It is a kind of self adaptation lead-edge-blanking form, and namely this form makes the duration of blanking period adapt to the characteristic of power transistor.But always may not sense the voltage (such as when transistor is discrete parts beyond control appliance and there is interface circuit mentioned above) of the actual applying of input terminal to transistor.Because the voltage on the input terminal of transistor is always lower than the voltage of the output at drive circuit, so it may cause than required shorter blanking period.
In U.S. Patent No. 6,144, in 245, describe a kind of system, wherein blanking period is when the electric current that last driving stage provides exceedes the threshold value determined, and terminates when described electric current is down to below this value.
Even if this method forms driving voltage and directly can not obtain and still applicable self adaptation lead-edge-blanking, but the parasitic element that its operation may be flow through by drive current (inductance and electric capacity) is present in circuit and affects.These parasitic antennas resonance and generating may temporarily may reduce the vibration of drive current extremely below threshold value mentioned above before transistor is connected entirely.This will cause terminating ahead of time of blanking period.In addition, as driven MOS FET or IGBT, should ensure that the supply voltage of drive circuit is apparently higher than steady voltage, otherwise drive current is reduced to below threshold value may occur owing to having the natural wastage of the current capacity of the driver of low differential voltage.
In U.S. Patent No. 7,151, in 679, a kind of circuit with variable blanking time section is described.Duration is the function of the output loading of transducer: it is longer, shorter when load is lighter when load is heavy.This intersystem problem is that the minimizing of the blanking time section when load is light may easily make blanking invalid: in fact, and when the electric discharge of spike mainly owing to parasitic capacitance ahead of the curve, the duration of described spike is almost independent of loading condition.

Signal CLOCK is the pulse of the very short duration of local oscillator or another circuit evolving particular event occurred in power circuit being detected.As already described, clock signal is the input signal S of PWM latch 5, and transistor M1 is connected.What this clock signal was also gone to one of OR door 101 input and arranged-reset trigger FF1 arranges input S.The output of PWM comparator 4 is inputs for two AND doors 102 and 103.Another input of AND door 102 is the output Q of trigger FF1, and the output A1 of AND door 102 is another both inputs of replacement input R1 and the OR door 101 of trigger FF1.Evaluate logic 11 comprises trigger FF1 and AND door 102.The monostable MF1 of flip-over type again the output of OR door 101 can be fed to along responsive to aligning.The output LEB of monostable MF1 apply to become to its input just along time step-down, namely become ground connection GND sustainable utilization internal counter regular time T1.
When applying CLOCK signal, Vcs is initially zero, and thus Vc is in low level, is ground connection GND, and the output of door 102 is zero.Monostable MF1 is activated on the follow-up just edge of the pulse that the output of OR door 101 occurs, and its output LEB becomes logic low duration T 1.By longer for usual maximum switch on delay Tdmax time T1 being chosen to certain specific power transistor.
During the duration of opening when clock pulse CLOCK arrives is the time window of T1, if signal Vc becomes high logic level, then door 102 allows this signal to pass through, and AND door 103 blocks it towards the replacement of PWM latch.Then, if the forward position spike Sp be present in signal Vcs has abundant amplitude (namely it is Vcs >=Ve), then it at certain Td≤T1 triggering in a flash PWM comparator 4, and will apply another just edge by by AND door 102 in the input of MF1.Because monostable MF1 can trigger again, so will the inside counting of monostable MF1 be reset and again count from this time period T1 of low output level in a flash, thus extended the blanking of signal Vc by door 103.Time period T also should be long enough to cover the maximum duration T smax of forward position spike to suppress it.During the trigger action again of monostable MF1, the output of AND door 102 resets trigger FF1, therefore it does not allow again to trigger monostable MF1 again during this switching cycle: in fact, in order to again realize the triggering again of monostable MF1, follow-up CLOCK pulse needs again to arrange trigger FF1.This function prevents the possible resilience of the signal Vcs caused by noise from triggering monostable MF1 repeatedly.Such resilience may cause the very long blanking time, and these very long blanking times easily may damage the operation of whole transducer.Therefore, trigger FF1 performs and removes rebound.
At the end of period Tb=Td+T1, signal LEB becomes high level, and the blanking of AND door 103 couples of signal Vc terminates, and then described signal can reset PWM latch 5 to allow stop power transistor M1.
If forward position spike Sp is not even as big as triggering PWM comparator 4 (this illustrates by dotted line in fig. 8), then MF1 can not be triggered and blanking period will be limited to very first time window T1.Therefore utilize this circuit to obtain, between T1 and 2*T1, there is successional variable blanking period.
Disclosed circuit uses should the longer single blanking period T1 of maximum both duration T smax of the maximum switch on delay Tdmax of specific power transistor and forward position spike, i.e. T1 > max (Tdmax, Tsmax).
This may be a problem when large gauge power transistor: switch on delay may be obviously longer than the duration of forward position spike, therefore causes the oversize duration of blanking period.
Fig. 9 shows the equipment 10 of the lead-edge-blanking for the current signal to power transistor according to the second embodiment.
Signal Q is the output of PWM latch 5.The high logic level of Q keeps gate drivers 6 to connect.Therefore when having the just edge of signal Q when connecting, activate align along responsive non-can the monostable MF10 of flip-over type again, and its output LEB1 step-down, namely becomes GND duration section T2.Similar to the previous circuit of Fig. 7, the maximum switch on delay Tdmax usually time T2 being chosen to certain specific power transistor M1 is longer.
By signal (i.e. the signal LEB1 of negate) takes the input of AND door 201 to, and this AND door is Received signal strength Vc in another input, and this signal is the output of PWM comparator 4.Therefore limit the time window of duration T 2, during this time window, if signal Vc uprises, then door 201 allows signal Vc to pass through.Then, if the forward position spike Sp in signal Vcs has abundant amplitude (namely it is higher than Ve), then certain in a flash Td≤T2 the input of the monostable MF20 of flip-over type again can apply just edge by by door 201 to non-.Because MF20 aligns along responsive, so step-down is continued following time T1 by its output LEB2, this time is long enough to the duration covering forward position spike Sp.
There is provided signal LEB1 and LEB2 to functional block 202, this functional block also can input Received signal strength Vc its another.Block 202 generates signal MASK, and this signal, by the output Vc of door 203 blanking PWM comparator 4, therefore prevents from resetting PWM latch 5 sustained periods of time Tb.At the end of Tb, signal Vc will be allowed by resetting PWM latch 5 and stop power transistor M1.
From the different internal configurations of the logical network of processing signals LEB1, LEB2 and Vc corresponding be possible for generating the various criterion of signal MASK.
Figure 10 illustrates functional block 202 the first example embodiment and with it once the relevant waveform of the operation in the circuit be inserted in Fig. 5.
In this case, the logic AND Setting signal MASK of two signal LEB1 and LEB2.If described spike continues sufficient time section higher than Ve, then result is the blanking period Tb=Td+T1 that can continuously change from minimum value T2 to maximum of T 1+T2.Therefore: T2≤Tb=Td+T1≤T1+T2.
Even if it should be noted that forward position spike is loss in time period T2, still there is Tb=Td+T1.
As compared with the equipment 10 of the first embodiment, advantage likely selects T1 and T2 dividually, to make their adaptations to the duration T d of influential two the different phenomenons of their selection and Ts:T2 > Tdmax, T1 > Tsmax.
Figure 11 illustrates functional block 202 the second execution mode and with it once the relevant waveform of the operation in the circuit be inserted in Fig. 5.
In this case, signal LEB1 and signal the logic AND Setting signal MASK of the logic OR of (i.e. the Vc signal of negate) and signal LEB2.Result to have the blanking period Tb of minimum value T2.Equally, if spike Sp extends beyond time period T2, as long as then signal Vc keeps high, as long as namely spike Sp does not exceed more than aforementioned triggering level, the duration of period Tb will extend beyond T2, but the duration is no longer than time period T1.Therefore: T2≤Tb=Td+Ts≤T1+T2 and Ts are duration of spike Sp, Ts lower than or equal Tsmax.
Therefore, also in this case, the maximum duration of Tb is T1+T2; But the duration that advantage is Tb is in the middle regime enough to suppress spike and not longer than required.
Also it should be noted that monostable MF1 and MF2 is non-can again triggering, the possible resilience therefore on signal Vcs can not affect circuit operation.This makes anti-rebound trigger unnecessary.
Also in this case, T1 and T2 can be selected to make them adapt to the maximum duration of Td and Ts: T2 > Tdmax, T1 > Tsmax.
It should be noted that when electric current being taken to the transducer overload of signal Vcs always in the such value of more than Ve, the minimal turn-on time of power transistor will be at least Tbmax, when this Tbmax equipment in figure 6 for 2*T1 and equipment in fig .9 when be T1+T2 (having two options).
Also it should be noted that in exemplary embodiments, signal Vcs available if having time because operating principle based on cause from disturbance affect itself refuse disturbance.
Due to the switch on delay of power transistor M1, by the impact using the equipment 10 in PWM comparator 4 downstream to reduce the minimizing of actual blanking time.In addition, the duration of blanking period T1 can the needs of adaptive circuit.Therefore, suppress the ability of forward position spike can with maintain efficiently limit the electric current through power transistor ability, even combine with relative high switching frequency.In fact, the short minimal turn-on time of power transistor M1 can be realized.Finally, if the amplitude of forward position spike Sp makes it not cause the non-required switching of PWM comparator 4 (if power transistor works under so-called " soft handover " condition when connecting, then this non-required switching may easily occur), then reduce the duration of lead-edge-blanking.
Above-described various embodiment can be combined to provide more embodiments.If necessary then can revision for execution example aspect with use various patent, application and open source literature concept to provide more embodiments.
Can be carried out these and other according to the description described in detail to embodiment above to change.Generally speaking, in the following claims, the term of use should not be construed as make claim be limited to disclosed specific embodiment in the specification and in the claims and should be interpreted as comprising likely embodiment and such claim are had the right the gamut of the equivalents had.Thus, disclosure does not limit claim.
